Kirby Adventure [GameCube - Unreleased]

9 Apr 2008

The game was announced for the Nintendo GameCube at E3 2005, but so little information has been revealed since then that rumors sprung forth that it has been put on hold or even cancelled. The game was absent from the show floor at E³ 2006. The levels will be rendered in 3D, but the game play will remain a side-scroller, much like in Kirby 64. The game will utilize a new attack system, which allows Kirby to ride on the backs of up to three other characters. Those characters will also be playable by other human players. Kirby can get abilities from partners or enemies, like in Kirby Super Star.

On May 26, 2006 when IGN released an article which states that a number of games, including a “generically labeled Kirby game” will be released for the Wii console. The article also states that this information was gathered from the Japanese release list found on the corporate site of the Japanese Nintendo webpage.

As of September 14, 2006, a list of upcoming games in Japan for Wii has including the title (Hoshi no Kirby). While the list is labeled with the Wii name, a number of titles that were previously listed as being released on other Nintendo systems are listed on it as well. For a further note, quite a number of games have shifted from one system (presumed cancelled) and released on another.

In addition, the December issue of Nintendo Power removed the game from the upcoming GameCube titles list, but did not place it in the upcoming Wii titles list. [info from Wikipedia]
